How You PocE eft The Profits.

When you buy ready made cloth
ing you have to pay profit to the
wholesaler and profit to the re-
taller. These two profits the retail
buyer pays, and these make the price
come high. Now contrast the diff
terent system at the M1sFIT PAR
LoRs. Instead of paying either a
wholesale or retail profit, you really
pocket what the tailors lose. We
don't pay full value for any of our
goods. We frequently pick them up
at less than one-half their original
value. The tailors have to part with
them for what they can get, and thus
we are able to offer you the best
tailor made clething far lower than
you can buy ready-made.
